Glass Run with New Structure for Stepless Seal

Application: 2018 Lexus LS

Improved car design characteristics and quietness by eliminating surface offset between glass and center pillar

Conventional glass runs have a square U shape that holds the edge of the window glass and forms a seal, creating a surface offset between the glass surface and center pillar. The design of the new product has been modified to change the cross-sectional shape and eliminate that offset. This gives a seamless, unified look to the front and back side window glass, contributing to a stylish exterior befitting a premium sedan. At the same time, it reduces the wind noise generated by the surface offset for a quieter vehicle interior cabin.
